Question

I would like to know if it’s permissible to eat calamari?

Answer

It is not permissible for the followers of the Hanafi Madhab to consume Calamari, as it does not fall in the category of fish. However, it may be consumed by followers of the Shafi’ee Madhab.

Ask Ibn Masood

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Ifta Ibn Masood. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
